making his grand entry, joking that it's rare for two ladies to be waiting for him. He then introduces contestants Sonal Gupta and Kalyani, who will be playing the 'Jaldi 5' round with him.
Kalyani answers all five questions correctly and secures her place on the hot seat. Overjoyed, she breaks into a dance, prompting Big B to playfully tease her about her dance moves. He even imitates her which leaves everyone laughing out loud. After taking the hot seat, she compliments Big B and jokingly calls her brother 'Betaal.' She tells Mr. Bachchan that while most contestants reach the hot seat with their parents' blessings, today her brother has made it to the KBC stage because of her.
She calls Big B her friend and tries to convince him to help her during the game.
Amitabh Bachchan resumes the game and presents the first question for Rs 50,000. Which of these films directed by Sooraj Barjatya did not feature Salman Khan? Kalyani confidently selects Option D) Main Prem Ki Deewani Hoon. During her chat with Mr. Bachchan, Kalyani opens up about her personal life, sharing that she hasn't found anyone who enjoys listening to her talk.

She playfully requests the host to help her find someone like him who can listen to her non-stop.
For the question of Rs 5,00,000, Kalyani uses her lifeline, 'Audience Poll'. For sixteen consecutive years, Bhuvneshwari Kumari won the national women's singles title in which sport? She selects Option C) Squash.
When Big B asked Kalyani how she planned to use the prize money, she said she would give it to her parents in gratitude for everything they have done for her.
She added that she would love to gift them a tour of India. Playfully, Big B asked if she would share some of the money with her younger brother as well. Kalyani quipped that bringing him on the show was already a big enough gift — what more could she possibly give him? This left Big B in splits, but he still pressed on, gesturing to her brother to ask for a gift.
Her brother requested a latest gaming console, to which Kalyani immediately said no, explaining how the whole family is already troubled by his constant gaming on the computer.
Next, Kalyani plays 'Super Sandook' and she manages to answer 7 questions correctly and earns Rs 70,000. She decides to revive her lifeline 'Audience Poll'.
Kalyani next faces the question for Rs 7,50,000. Located in Turkmenistan, what is the local name of the gas crater nicknamed 'Gates of hell', which has been burning non-stop for over half a century? As she is not aware of the answer, she takes the help of the life life '50-50' and 'Audience Poll' but the audience ends up suggesting the wrong answer to her, Option B) Jahannam. She incorrectly answers the question.
She ends up taking home Rs 5,00,000.
